Based on reader interest at Autobytel.com, the new, smaller Hummer H3 is reinvigorating the Hummer brand – even though it offers buyers the meager power of the five-cylinder engine found in the Chevy Colorado, which some would say is an unworthy powertrain. Sometimes, however, it’s not about the go in the horse but the rhinestones on the rider, which makes the Hummer H3 Street Concept a perfect SEMA show car. The Street features chrome on the grille, hood handles, side vents, fuel door, tubular side steps, and tail lamp guards. Body-colored accents and 20-inch JAX alloy wheels round out the package.
